Description
Summary:<p>The main purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the</p><p>transparency and commitment of Human Resource Management (HRM) practices and</p><p>job performance. The study also aimed to examine the mediating role of working</p><p>engagement in the relationship between the transparency and commitment of HRM</p><p>practices and performance, in the context of the Iraqi banks industry. This quantitative</p><p>study utilized the explanatory research design. Using random sampling techniques</p><p>and proportionate sampling, a set of questionnaires was used to collect the required</p><p>data from employees in three banks in Iraq. There are 400 respondents from</p><p>employees in three Iraqi banks namely, Rafedeen Bank, Baghdad Bank, and</p><p>Kurdistan Bank involved in this study. Data analysis was conducted using AMOS as</p><p>embedded in Structure Equation Model (SEM) to test three main research hypotheses</p><p>pertaining to the causal relationship among the variables. The result showed that</p><p>transparency of HR practices and commitment to HR practices has a significant effect</p><p>on working engagement (=0.41, p<0.01), ( =0.39, p<0.01) respectively. The result</p><p>also showed that working engagement has a significant effect on the accuracy of</p><p>working tasks ( =0.26, p<0.0 I) and the quality of working tasks ( =0.33, p<0.01).</p><p>The finding of this study also revealed that working engagement mediates the effect</p><p>of transparency and commitment of HRM practices on job performance including</p><p>accuracy and quality of work tasks. Thus, all the hypotheses of this study were</p><p>supported. The findings provide insights to decision-makers in the banking industry to</p><p>improve the transparency and commitment of HRM practices and the working</p><p>environment that can promote the engagement of employees in their work to improve</p><p>their job performance.</p>
